saying that's going to allow washington to continue to spend money here on capitol hill. that's been met with a little bit of interest here in the halls of congress because that's a sign that republican conservatives are not entirely thrilled with the speaker's proposal to the president of the united states. it brings up the question of how much the speaker can actually negotiate with the president and how much his hands are going to be tied by dealing with his own conservative caucus here on the hill. talking with those republican members today, it seems like the speaker still has the upper hand. that's going to narrow some of the running room that the speaker has going forward. very, very dicey situation for speaker boehner today. >> all right. we'll be watching that. thank you so much, eamon. want to get to mary thompson now. >> pandora reporting an adjusted loss for the quarter -- adjusted earnings, i should say. up five cents a share on revenue of $120 million. the company also gave guidance for the fourth quarter, seeing an adjusted loss for that period. up 6 to 9 c

to our way of thinking, what's happening in washington is not favorable. it is dysfunctional and it does speak with the debt ceiling one or two months forward to a potential for deficits to remain in the trillion dollar category going forward. so as that symptomatic or emblemattic of a type of credit, perhaps not. we would very much watch the fiscal situation as it develops over the next several years and the ability to reduce entitlements, to raise taxes, to bring it into balance. >> and finally, bill, before i let you go, 2012 will certainly be remembered for the statement that you made that the cult of equity is dying and whether it's jack bogul that was on the program who says he disagrees, and you can say he was talking his book as others say you were talking yours, but you get the idea he disagrees with that. many other people on this network flat out disagree with that statement. what would make you change your mind and do you regret making that comment? >> well, first of all, you have to understand, i said that the cult of equity is dying, i didn't

i understand the enthusiasm or encouraging signs coming out of washington. but are these two sides really that much closer together? they seem, in some ways, to be talking past one another. >> right. what we don't know is what happened in this meeting today. that could be a sign of some progress. obviously the speaker made a new offer. now we will wait and see what the president will match that with. the political dynamics here are that the speaker needs to go back it republican colleagues on capitol hill and tell him look what i got the president to agree to that we didn't think he would agree to. what is that piece of this? it has to be on the spending side somewhere. that's where this deal will get made if it get made. obviously this level of activity, meetings, phone calls, activity over the weekend, indicates that something is happening. we are moving toward the goal line here. goal being a deal. but there's no question, there's no guarantee of course we will get there all the way. >> it is very interesting, eamon, speaker boehner's position was 800 bil
